Creamed Hamburger on Toast - Easy Comfort Food
Creamed Hamburger on Toast is a super easy, four ingredient main dish that is quick to whip up and sure to make your comfort food's greatest hits list. It's not pretty, and neither is this picture, but I tried.
This is another of Grandma Betty's recipes. The Noel and Betty Rust family farmed dairy cattle in Northwest Iowa, so this rich dairy dish has it's heart from the farm..
I fondly remember my own Mom making this growing up, sometimes with chopped dried beef instead of burger. I don't think I truly appreciated it as much as a kid as I do now. Of course, back when I had the metabolism of a hummingbird was the time to really dig into a big plate of the creamy crunchy goodness, not now that I have the 40+and-given-birth-to-six-kids metabolism. Go figure!
This is one of Eddie's favorites, too, and it's growing on our kids. As far as being a healthy dish, well, not so much. At least I use whole wheat bread and lean ground beef. One more thing, my pictures are for a double batch as I'm feeding 7.
Here's the recipe:
1 pound ground beef
1-2 tablespoons flour
Salt
1 pint whole milk
In a large skillet (I use cast iron) brown the ground beef and drain it if you wish. If I use super lean beef sometimes I'll add a bit of butter to give it some fat flavor.

Sprinkle on the flour and salt, stir.
Then, slowly stir in the milk and cook until bubbly and thick.
Make your toast and cut into squares or tear into pieces if you're feeling crafty.
Serve the creamed hamburger on the toast.
Boom, dinner.
I love this dish for it's mix of crunchy, creamy and meaty. All.So.Good.
Stay warm friends!
